de Gournay & Ken Fulk: Design Collaboration

Celebrated as one of the most imaginative designers working today, Ken Fulk’s endless capacity envisaging interiors of wonder and style shows no sign of abating – the latest example the result of our design collaboration at the annual Kips Bay Decorator Show House in New York City.

Imagined as the interior of a 1960’s doyenne of Upper East Side polite society, the San Francisco native conceived a motif depicting a menagerie of animals from the city’s zoo abounding within her exquisite garden, having escaped their lesser lodgings in Central Park.

Painted expertly by hand by de Gournay’s in house artisans, the scene conjures a magnificent spectacle across almost 30 panels: each taking up to 150 hours to complete. Based on the elaborate narrative vistas of 19th century European wallcoverings, this attention to detail is typical of all de Gournay’s scenic designs.

Combining landscape details from two of de Gournay’s well known scenic layouts – ‘L’Eden’ and ‘English Landscape’ – the new motif is to be a permanent addition to the brands design library: available to order from de Gournay showrooms worldwide following its exclusive unveiling at the prestigious show house.

de Gournay are proud to add such a unique brief to their expanding repertoire of bespoke projects – created with essence of craftsmanship that brings designs to life.
